Now thanks to some early adopters of GY F1 ASY...we have good feedbacks and a good alternative to the ori CSC3...months ago I sent my car to Pirelli to fix the 'swing to left' prob...I was already looking around for a replacement...to know more before I eventually change mine in the future...hahaha...
so the boss was showing me this P7 (rm5xx for 225/45/17)...even his E90 was using it...and I think its imported...has anyone use the P7 before ?


btw, most of the time I have all 4 tires@36psi...I did tried 38psi too...but dont notice much diff in ride & comfort tongue.gif

using 55 means you have to reduce the width from 225 to 195 otherwise less gap between wheel and fenders .. meaning tyre scraping = dangerous .. exploding tyres!

195 will make your 308 cacat and also lose of grip for car with such torque .. you are running on thin line ... unless you downgrade to 16" rims - u lose handling, get comfort.
Don't wait for chances, create them!
